Project overview

The Verivox price comparison portal project was focused on upgrading and modernizing the customer's platform for gathering, aggregating, and displaying multiple utility companies' rates to end-clients. Andersen's Front-end and Back-end engineering teams worked tirelessly to bring the platform's functionality to life so that visitors could easily compare rates via a comparison table and choose the most suitable vendor based on specified parameters. With an experienced Project Manager leading the process, our engineers followed the best industry practices to give Verivox a robust and efficient online consumer portal.

The platform's ability to collect, bundle, and show rates from different utility companies has greatly improved, and the needs of Verivox have been successfully satisfied. A Tech Lead at Verivox praised our IT specialists for their swift onboarding and reliable, high-quality coding practices, stating that our developers became an integral and valuable part of their in-house Scrum team. Andersen's specialists have proved themselves to be the right choice, and Verivox is extremely satisfied with the results of the project.

Customer review

Review verified by clutch and matches the customer’s words

Andersen has helped us obtain a price comparison portal focused on different private loans. Five of their experienced coders were selected to work on Angular and Angular.js interfaces and C# and PHP microservices. The onboarding process is quite quick – two weeks instead of three months – if one chooses to hire a developer.
